It’s that time again for Jeff Z. load the Volvo up for an interview. Here’s the latest In The Volvo where Broc Raiford talks about 2019 and what he has going for 2020. Broc has made some big moves with new sponsors Red Bull an Sunday Bikes and getting dialed in health wise to set himself up for what’s shaping up to be a banger year. Hit play and take it all in!
“Broc Raiford has seen some big changes career wise over the last year, including getting on Red Bull and leaving long time sponsor Volume to ride for Sunday. We discuss all of that in detail, as well as his unique concept videos for Odyssey, Broc’s art side-project Tough World Co, and so much more when Broc got in the Volvo for an afternoon. *Please excuse the low-fi wizzing sound that starts up about half-way through the video (sometimes 30-plus year old cars make odd sounds) and I also began to loose my voice as well.” – Our BMX

Can you make a BMX peg out of Bamboo? We already know you can build a BMX bike out of bamboo thanks to Mat Hoffman, but we aren’t too sure about pegs made from bamboo. Big Boy decided to head into the workshop and fabricate some bamboo BMX pegs and see how it all works out. Hit play and see how it all played out.
“Big Boy is on a quest to make BMX pegs out of anything he can, and this time he tried to use Bamboo! He has to make DIY bike pegs and complete BMX tricks with them! Did he make Eco-friendly BMX pegs?” – Scotty Cranmer
This is intense. Red Bull took Courage Adams back to Nigeria where he was born. During the trip, he spent his time riding, meeting the locals, experiencing everything around him and more. Courage calls Madrid, Spain home these days, but going back to see how different the BMX scene is in Nigeria was definitely an eye opening experience. This documentary style video gives us a look at what was going on from start to finish with this trip, along with some riding and perspective. It looks like it was an amazing trip to us. Hit play and check this out! It’s safe to say the scene in Nigeria is growing!
“At age 12 Courage Adams started riding BMX, but by age 16 he’d turned pro, taken the BMX world by storm and made the most of his parents’ bold move. Now, he returns to his roots in Nigeria, discovering new connections amongst a community of like-minded bike lovers.
BMX street is one of the most frequently evolving sports in the world. Fashions come and go as pro riders flit between the contest scene and their latest video release. In Nigeria, things are a bit different.
As it is around the globe, riding bikes can be about breaking down walls and allowing an ever-growing group of riders to connect and feed off each other’s inspirations and influences.
Follow Courage, Starboy, KK Money and S-King as we return to the streets of Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city, to illustrate just what a difference riding bikes has made to their lives and what their hopes are for the history of the sport in their town.
BMX on the streets of Lagos seems to be a blend of both old- and new-school influences and looks set to head off in its own unique direction as the riders and scene evolves. We can’t wait to see just what the future brings for BMX in Nigeria.” – Red Bull
We’ve seen some pretty wild BMX contests over the years, but what we haven’t seen is prize money that would definitely make an impact. The Chimera A-Side contest going down in Japan this weekend has a first place prize of $90,000. Prize money amounts can be kind of secretive for big events like X Games, but we’re pretty sure this is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, payouts for a 1st place in a BMX contest, which is awesome to see. Here’s a raw cut of some first impressions and a bit of riding footage that Vital BMX put together. It’s interesting to see the reaction these guys get when they contemplate what they would do if they won. We’ll see if the money is going to push people to go bigger than ever before to win. Either way, there’s going to be a park rider and a flatland rider with a real nice chunk of change in their bank account to start off 2020.
“We’re in Nagoya, Japan and the riders are about ready to compete for the $90,000 first place prize at the Chimera A-Side! Watch them get familiar with the course and hear how they’d spend the giant cash prize. Riders include Boyd Hilder, Logan Martin, Brandon Loupos, Daniel Sandoval, Justin Dowell, Ben Wallace, Rim Nakamura, and more!” – Vital BMX
